Dear Jennifer Rae Dobson, Generally, it is safe to disembark from the cruise and depart on an international flight from Hanoi at 7:00 PM. The Mon Chéri Cruise returns to the mainland around 11:30 AM, and the transfer to Hanoi Airport takes approximately 2.5 hours. This timeline allows plenty of time to reach the airport well ahead of your flight. Best regards, Helen

- Drop off at Gia Luan Pier after visiting Trung Trang Cave (around 8.30am), you will miss the brunch, no extra fee
- Drop off at Gia Luan Pier after brunch (10.30am - 11.00), the extra fee is USD 15 for 2 persons.

Dear Marisa, You can consider Cat Bi Airport in Hai Phong or Noi Bai Airport in Hanoi. Cat Bi Airport is closer, however, it has fewer flight options. Please kindly find more information for the transfer to the airport as follows:

(1) Transfer Halong - Cat Bi airport: USD 50 for 2 persons => You will reach the airport at around 12:30 - 13:00 and please book a flight after 14:00

(2) Transfer Halong - Noi Bai airport:
Option 1: Shuttle bus Halong - Hanoi center & connecting car to the airport: USD 50 for 2 persons => You will reach the airport at around 15:00 - 15:30 and please book a flight after 16:30
Option 2: Private car Halong - Noi Bai airport: USD 110 for 2 persons => You will reach the airport at around 14:00 - 14:30 and please book a flight after 15:30

I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries.

Best regards,
Annie (Ms.)

We’ll be staying on Cat Ba island prior to the cruise. Do you offer shuttle transfers from Cat Ba or are there any cruises that leave closer to Cat Ba?

Dear Cristina, The cruise will leave at around 11:30 - 12:00 but if you arrive late in Halong City, we can arrange you a speed boat to catch the main boat. The cost is around US$ 80 to US$ 150 depending on the actual time you arrive. Best regards, Annie (Ms.)

Dear Mark Thomson, You can get a flight from Cat Bi airport to Danang as it takes only 45 minutes from Halong (the nearest airport from Halong). You can find a flight after 1.30pm. Best regards, Cindy

Mon Cheri is a must-do in Halong Bay. Our family is so happy with our 2 nights on the bay. The cruise ship runs smoothly. Lots of fun activities like kayaking, cycling on the island, cooking class, etc. Jasmine, the cruise manager, and her team are exceptional. Rooms are very spacious. Food is yummy. Would love to come back.

We took the 3-day, 2-night trip, and it was the best ! The day 2 to Lan Ha Bay and Cat Ba Island was a highlight. We had plenty of time to relax and enjoy the view.
More activities after dinner.

Our room is comfortable and nicely equipped. The staff were friendly and accommodating. breakfast, and lunches were amazing.
Dinner menu could be better. The main boat docked very far from the pier. It took a long time to reach it.

Most amazing cruise! We were so confused about too many cruise companies out there but Mon Cheri was definitely our best choice. Nothing to dislike about this trip. The service, the food, and our bedrooms were excellent. Ann was the best host. We joined all activities, all were interesting. Just book it!

What an amazing experience! Everything was smooth, from the hotel pickup, transfers, to check-in, check-out, and the stay itself. The rooms were super comfy and spacious. The bathroom was big too. All the meals in the restaurant were delicious. Special shout out to Mr. Gohan, the bartender.
Rooms on the second floor near the engine room can be a bit noisy in the morning.
